I have so many things to tell all of you about and yet each time I’ve tried to sit down to write a blog about them I get interrupted – From my husband being hospitalized unexpectedly last week, to me needing to fly to Washington DC this week for some really important meetings and to […]
Remember when you were a kid and you thought being an adult would be fun? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA LOL That quote literally made me laugh out loud when I read it because it’s so hysterically yet painfully true! As little kids we couldn’t wait to grow up…to be old enough to “do whatever we want”, and stay […]
“Our attention span is shot. We’ve all got Attention Deficit Disorder or ADD or OCD or one of these disorders with three letters because we don’t have the time or patience to pronounce the entire disorder. That should be a disorder right there, TBD ‘Too Busy Disorder.’ ” – Ellen DeGeneres ADD and TBD…those are […]
(Dalton Anderson filling in for Amy Rees Anderson who is recovering from a cold because I am a good son:) : I had a discussion with some friends the other day over an opinion on a movie. We were talking about how we would rate the movie out of 10. One individual thought it deserved […]
Tonight I had the privilege of being the very first speaker for this year’s annual Entrepreneurial Leadership Series up at Utah State University (hosted by the Huntsman School of Business) for around 400 students. USU holds a special place in my heart because my grandfather was a graduate there and he later taught there as […]
Have I mentioned how much I LOVE HOLIDAYS?! I love everything about them. Great food, fun, friends, family….how could I not love holidays?? In fact, I get so excited about holidays that I start celebrating them in my mind the day before they even arrive…the closer we get to the actual holiday the more antsy […]
I don’t know about you, but I do WAY better in life when I know I have someone to account to. Someone who I have to disclose my goals to, someone who I know will be checking in on my progress, and someone who I want to make proud by accomplishing the thing I set […]
“The fact is, every single one of us is a work-in-progress. We may be at different stages in life. We may have different strengths and weaknesses, but there isn’t a single person on the planet who hasn’t felt vulnerable or made mistakes. Nor is there a single person who couldn’t be better at something in […]
We were all born with our own unique challenges. Some physical, some mental, some circumstantial. Some all of the above. But those challenges we were born with were never meant to hold us back, in fact, they were meant to help us become strong in the areas we would most need to be in order […]
Have you ever had one of those days where you feel like you have been going a million miles an hour all day long, only to get to the end of your day and have absolutely no idea what you actually accomplished? Yeah…so today was one of those days. My day started at 5:30am because […]
Just the word “organize” is stressful because it makes me immediately think of all the piles of things that are waiting for me to organize them. And try as I want to, every new day brings in more and more piles of additional emails, additional documents, additional letters, additional phone calls, etc.. all of which […]
“That awkward moment when you’ve already said “What?” three times and still have no idea what the person said, so you just agree.” That quote perfectly describes the woes of a person suffering from A.D.D., like me, whose meds have worn off at the end of the night… #thestruggleisreal Last night I had the most […]
Mental Illness is something everyone deals with in one form or another – whether they deal with it personally, whether they are living with someone who has a genuine mental illness, or whether they have a friend who is suffering from it. It touches all our lives in one form or fashion. And I personally […]
When we wake up every day, the person we should be competing against is the person we were yesterday. Every day we should be trying to beat out that person we were the day before. Looking back we can easily see how far we have come over the years. We can see just how much […]
This weekend I spent, and this is no joke, 10 hours over the course of two days watching inspirational and motivational talks. These talks were broadcast as part of a General Conference that is done by the LDS Church every six months. I look forward to Conference weekend every October and every April because it […]
Yes, it’s that time of year again – the time for Spring Cleaning. And what better time to get it done than over the Spring Break holiday week? I personally dread Spring Cleaning because I have A.D.D. For those of you who are not familiar with the term A.D.D it stands for Attention Deficit Disorder, […]
First I have to admit that there is little I enjoy LESS than the repeated doorbell ringing on the night of Halloween when you have to walk through the house for the ten millionth time to open the door and pass out candy. It’s not that I don’t enjoy seeing all the cute little kids […]
